Xuanqin's military campaign against Northern Chu has already started after this year's autumn harvest, and until now in November, the two countries have been fighting for nearly three months.

Not surprisingly, the Northern Chu army retreated steadily, leaving almost half of Northern Chu behind.

Originally, although Xuanqin's national power was stronger than Beichu's, it would not be crushing. This is due to two key points, one is that the Xuanqin cavalry cannot stop it, and the other is that the Xuanqin cultivator cannot win. Therefore, the Northern Chu army was no match for the Xuanqin army at all.

Northern Chu originally had a strong cavalry force, enough to guard Xuan Qin's cavalry. However, that army was buried in the Hengduan Mountains.

One hundred thousand days of cavalry, the strongest cavalry in Northern Chu! Hunt down packs of Demonic Beasts in the dark! Overnight, buried under catkins.

If Tian Qiqi is still there, then even if Xuan Qin wants to launch a war against Bei Chu, he will have to weigh it...at least not so soon.

Now that there is no Tiance Army, the Xuanqin Tiger Wolf Cavalry facing Tiance Army is like entering the land of no one.

The topography of Northern Chu is the Hengduan Mountains in the southwest, which is a hilly area, and once the Hengduan Mountains area is passed, it is a plain.

The plain stretches over half of Northern Chu.

At first, Xuan Qin took advantage of Bei Chu's untimely reaction and launched a strong attack regardless of losses, directly pushing the battle line to the plains. At this time, Northern Chu fought again, but because the cavalry was not as good as others, it was impossible to fight Xuanqin on the plain, and they retreated steadily until they retreated to Wuyi City.

Wuyi City is the end of the plain behind the Hengduan Mountains.

The city of Wuyi was built on the mountain, and it was based on another mountain range in the Northern Chu Kingdom, a mountain range across the middle of the Northern Chu Kingdom, dividing the Northern Chu Kingdom into two parts.

Therefore, this Wuyi city is the gateway to this mountain range, and it is also the last line of defense of the Northern Chu Kingdom.

After all, after passing Wuyi City, it was flat land again, all the way to the capital of Northern Chu.

If Wuyi City can't be defended, according to Xuanqin's previous offensive, then Northern Chu should declare its subjugation.

At this time, night fell, Wuyi City, in the wartime command post rebuilt from the city lord's mansion, Li Zhan, the general of Northern Chu, was discussing military affairs with a group of subordinates.

The discussion was about Xuanqin's siege during the day, and how to defend Xuanqin's next attack.

"It's going to snow soon..." Someone said, "When it snows, Xuan Qin will have to withdraw his troops. As long as the snow falls, Bei Chu will be saved."

"Guard?" Someone raged, "What do you use to guard? There are cultivators in the sky, cavalry on the ground, and our mortal bodies...Eggs hit rocks, mantis arms block cars!"

When he mentioned that there is a cultivator in the sky, everyone in the room couldn't help but look gloomy. During the daytime, Xuanqin attacked the city in an all-round way, and almost all the cultivators who were able to join the battle from Northern Chu were killed...including Jiang Xiaobai, the sword god of Northern Chu, and Mo Lao, the guest of the Li family. In Northern Chu, there is no cultivator.

When he mentioned that there were cavalrymen on the ground, everyone in the room couldn't help looking at the man at the end of the seat who lowered his head and looked down without saying a word... Li Shiwen, the best cavalryman in Northern Chu died at his hands.

"This attack actually hurt Xuanqin's vitality. They should make some adjustments and fight again at another day." Someone analyzed, "If we don't take the opportunity to preserve our strength, we will quietly transfer the vital force away. Go to Wuling City behind the mountain , trade geography for time, and wait for the snow to fall."

When he said this, many people in the room were moved. Fighting and losing all the time, half of the country has already been lost. These people have all had their bones broken, thinking in their hearts, so what if they just lose another city?

"This statement is very wrong! We know it's going to snow, so Xuanqin knows it too!" Someone put forward the opposite view, "If Wuyi City is not captured, the problem they will face is that all previous efforts will be in vain. Next spring they will I have to start all over again. Based on this, I assert that tomorrow or even tonight, they will organize another full-scale siege, and it will be absolutely crazy, and they will never stop dying!"

What he said, there are those who are prudent, those who change color, those who are afraid, and those who are determined...

Some people said: "The war between the kingdoms has caused a lot of damage. If you can't win once, why do you want to attack again? This year Xuanqin can't win, I don't think there will be another attack next year..."

The discussion was intense, but General Li Zhanli in the seat didn't say a word. Until it became more and more intense, more and more intense, and finally calmed down suddenly.

Li Zhan stood up, supported the table with his hands, scanned the crowd with his bloodshot eyes, and said slowly in a soft voice:

"Since the invasion of Xuanqin, we have fought and retreated all the way. We have lost more than 70 large cities, countless small cities, and more than half of Northern Chu. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers have been killed and wounded, and the people have been displaced. We have retreated all the way to the Here. You are all people who know about military affairs. Once Wuyi City is broken, there will be plains behind, more people, and the capital Danyang..."

He stopped, took a light breath, looked around the crowd, and then said word by word, "As for this, there is no retreat! There is no retreat! It's just a battle to the death! The city is alive, and the city is dead!"

After saying these words, everyone in the audience was awe-inspiring, no one dared to speak, no one even dared to breathe.

After a long time, Li Shiwen, who was at the end of the seat, stood up, and said aloud, his voice was hoarse because he hadn't spoken for a long time: "Xuan Qin will definitely launch the final attack tonight. I will sit on the guard tower!"

Li Zhan glanced at him lightly, without any emotion, and replied: "Yes!"

Late at night, Li Shiwen was wearing a silver battle armor and holding a silver steel gun, sitting quietly on the parapet of the city wall, looking at the darkness outside.

His battle armor is damaged, with black blood stains that cannot be washed off; his steel gun is damaged, with blood stains that cannot be wiped off.

The cold wind blows, and in the darkness outside the city under the wall, there are one after another monsters that choose to eat people. His face is expressionless.

What is he waiting for? He seems to be waiting for Xuan Qin's attack, or... waiting for death.

He didn't wait for Xuan Qin's attack, but waited for his wife's dinner first.

Yuchizhen, carrying the lantern and the food box, climbed up the tower to find Li Shiwen. She stood on the city wall and looked up at Li Shiwen.

"I heard that the other side will attack tonight..." she said, "You should eat something!"

Li Shiwen jumped off the city wall and took the food box from Yu Chizhen's hand. He looked at the woman who was suffering with him, standing shivering in the cold wind on the city wall. He said: "It's cold up there, you go down first."

Yu Chizhen could have been a so-called hostage in Danyang instead of following him, but she still took her children with him... from Linxian City to Wuyi City.

After her wife married him, she said that what she heard was him. Li Shiwen was the youngest general in Northern Chu, the God of War who was invincible and invincible.

But he didn't expect that after marrying him, he didn't win even one battle...even he himself forgot what it felt like to win.

Yuchi really obediently turned around and walked downstairs, but after walking a few steps, she suddenly turned her head, looked at him and said seriously: "You said that Xiaopingan went to find Shiyin...but I will always be with you, no matter what life and death."

Her voice was still soft and weak, and it was blown to and fro by the cold wind, it seemed that it took a while for Li Shiwen to hear it.

When he heard it, Yuchi had already gone down the city wall, and he was standing in the cold wind holding the food box, tears streaming down his face.
